Verb tensesVerb TensesLike other types of words in the language, English verbs are not heavily inflected. Most combinations of tense, aspect, mood and voice are expressed periphrastically, using constructions with auxiliary verbs and modal verbs.Auxiliary verbsAuxiliary verbs are also known as 'helping verbs'.

The three most common auxiliary verbs are:

BeDo Have

I am leaving = Leaving is the main verb. Am is the auxiliary.She has arrived = Arrived is the main verb. Has is the auxiliary.Do you smoke? = Smoke is the main verb. Do is the auxiliary.Modal verbsUnlike other auxiliary verbs modals only exist in their helping form; they cannot act alone as the main verb in a sentence.Verbs in French are conjugated to reflect the following information: TenseAspectMoodPerson

Number1st2nd3rdSingularPluralAuxiliary verbs (auxiliaires)In French, the auxiliary verb is either avoir or être. All French verbs are classified by which auxiliary verb they take, and they use the same auxiliary verb in all compound tenses. Mood (Le Mode)Indicative is the most common and is used to relate facts and objective statements.Jean-Paul se réveille tôt le matin (Jean-Paul gets up early in the morning.)

Subjunctive deals with facts, intentions, processes, or actions that are thought about/reflected upon. The mental process frame is denoted by the subjunctive.J’apprécierai que vous arriviez à l’heure (I would appreciate that you arrive on time)

Conditional is used to express the fact that the action/fact/process is subject to conditions, or that the statement introduced in the sentence is subject to doubt.Si je savais jouer du piano, je pourrais donner un concert. (If I knew how to play the piano, I could give a concert.)Tenses (le temps)IndicativeImperativeSubjunctiveConditionalThere are three primary groups of French verbs, classified according to the ending of their infinitives:Le verbeSpanish verbs undergo inflection according to the following categories:Tense: past, present, future.Number: singular or plural.Person: first, second or third.distinction: familiar or respectful.Mood: indicative, subjunctive, or imperative.Aspect: perfective aspect or imperfective aspectVoice: active or passive.Spanish verbs are categorized, appropriately enough in three groups:mood (il modo)Questo libro è (interessare)Tempo (scadere)interessantescadutoTra il dire e il fare c’è di mezzo il mare.
